Does this have a political connotation, that the (population of the) state is conservative? - -sche (discuss) 01:34, 26 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Not exactly. I think when used pejoratively, the connotation is comparable to "out in the boondocks". An unsophisticated backwater place with parochial people. A place that doesn't matter that coastal elites pass through on their way to places that do. ~ Röbin Liönheart (talk) 16:26, 26 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
